Prolotherapy in Missoula, Montana
Prolotherapy is a therapy that induces the healing of ligaments and tendons by using a mild solution of dextrose (sugar) and procaine. Our cells absorb the dextrose causing a mild localized healing reaction producing an increase in the strength and thickness of ligaments and tendons.
Unstable joints due to lax ligaments, torn tendons or osteoarthritis are the source of most joint pain. The prolotherapy process is a natural, effective and useful therapy for many different types of musculoskeletal pain. Strengthened ligaments and tendons stabilize the joint and remove the source of pain. It is safe, affordable, and allows the patient to keep working and training during the recovery process.
